Still a bit messy but at least not pointing the bat at the umpire during load and closer to normal load and launch

Nashville probably has a competent hitting coach.

Suddenly Steele is a scrub instead of a Cub.

I don’t understand. Those words mean the same thing

I'll take one more and turning it over to Bryse Wilson for a couple.

Would be awesome if Houser could gut through 2 more innings

I thing the Cubs blew there wad in AZ and nothing left in the tank. 

Given they seem to play great ball against us, hopefully empty to the point that they get passed by the Reds or the Marlins.

That would be perfect.

I saw a stat this morning that the Brewers set a franchise record of giving up 5 runs or less in 21 consecutive games, so six is the magic number in more ways than one.

Why take a good catch to throw an insult at a player on the bench?  What is the point, how does it add to this thread?

We've seen people all the time point out how having a certain player on the field caused a good defensive play to happen, usually said by mentioning the difference between that player and the replaced one. Never seemed like a big deal to me, more of a compliment for the player on the field than anything else.

[Brewcrew82]

Thank you for not breaking that bat Contreras. We need you.

[Brian]

Another good inning by Houser. We needed that. 

[markedman5]

Love to see Houser settle in …….Contreras has done such a nice job with this staff

[Brewcrew82]

Talk about a blast from the past.

[folly412]

Jacob Barnes still in the league.  That book was a bore.

[HarryDoyle]

Think we can get one more out of Houser.

[kevinisaname]

Well, crap. Cubs are coming back. 8-6 now.

Also, let's score more runs!

[Brewcrew82]

And the Cubs are back in the game...

[Underachiever]

Cubs grand slam. 8-6

[markedman5]

Cubs just hit a grand slam 

[Brian]

Houser has 72 pitches so 1 or 2 more innings.

[kevinisaname]

If Houser can go one more, that'd be huge.

[HarryDoyle]

Robots

[Bulldogboy]

The Contreras Brothers now ops 824 and 825. Pretty incredible. Brewers version cheaper though. 

[kevinisaname]

Couple of hard hit balls. I would think that may be all, but I'd be willing to throw him out there for one more inning and if anyone gets on base, pull him.

Sheesh, maybe another one.
